In legal terms you are "impaired" but there is no way of estimating how long ago you consumed the alcohol. Although there is a general rule-of-thumb for it (on average, the normal, healthy, adult body metabolizes alcohol at approximately 1 ounce per hour), everyone metabolizes alcohol at a slightly different rate. An 'educated assumption' may be made as to how long ago you drank, but it is scientifically impossible to give an exact time frame.

You can be charged for certain behavior that occurs when you have over-consumed, such as disorderly conduct in a public place, DUI, any damage to person or property.
